As for the Seahawks, they got a lucky break from the refs as they held on to defeat the Lions 13-10 on Monday Night Football.

Kick off is schedule for 1:00 PM EST.

Seattle

Luck, refs, perfect timing. All three can be described in Seattle’s 13-10 win over the Lions on Monday Night Football. Up just 13-10 with over a minute remaining, Lions WR Calvin Johnson caught a pass near the goal line.

Johnson reached across the line, but the ball was knocked out and fell into the endzone. Seahawks KJ Wright clearly batted the ball out of the end zone and it was called a touchback. By rule, that should have been an illegal batting play, thus giving the ball to the Lions on 1.

However, that wasn’t the case, the Seahawks ran the clock out and clinched their 2nd win of the season.

QB Russell Wilson finished 20 of 26 for 287 yards and a touchdown. Wilson was sacked 6 times in the contest, something the Seahawks will have to clearly improve on going forward.

The run game for Seattle lacked a lot, but they had a valid excuse. RB Marshawn Lynch was ruled out with a hamstring injury. The RB is expected to be back this week.

Cincinnati

The Bengals continue to be one of the most impressive teams out of the gate. QB Andy Dalton and WR AJ Green continue to flourish as a tandem and the Bengals remain unbeaten heading into Week 5.

Last week, Cincinnati dropped Kansas City 36-21 and that was thanks in large part to their defensive stands.

The Bengals D sacked Alex Smith 5 times and forced the Chiefs into 7 field goals in the game.
